Deprodded. Non-notable unelected politician, promotional. He's a SAIT graduate, ladies and gentlemen! Ribbet32 (talk) 15:30, 6 April 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete. People do not get Wikipedia articles just for being candidates in elections they haven't won — to already qualify for an article today, he would have to either (a) already have preexisting notability for other reasons that would already have gotten him a Wikipedia article anyway, or (b) be referenceable to such an unusual explosion of media coverage, far beyond the merely expected volume and range of coverage that every candidate always gets, that he would have a credible claim to being special. No prejudice against recreation on or after election day if he wins the seat, but nothing here constitutes a reason why he would already be eligible to have an article today.

 * Delete Fails WP:NPOL and WP:GNG. In general I feel as though more articles like this are going to start popping up given that its an election year in Canada and its a pretty big municipal election year in the US. Best, GPL93 (talk) 12:29, 8 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete as per Bearcat. Madg2011 (talk) 01:45, 11 April 2019 (UTC)
